Gift of Life

Nov 3, 2016

Since 2004, the Nicklas Foundation has been able to offer housing to 70+ families awaiting a life-saving organ transplant. Thanks to the continued support of the DeBaun family, volunteers, supporters and employees of the Nicklas Foundation, in the last two years alone, The Landings of Carrier Parkway has been privileged to have housed 23 families which have had 18 successful organ transplants. These families have come from New York, Oklahoma, Texas, California, North Carolina, Mississippi, Missouri, Kansas, Louisiana and New Mexico to stay at our complex while they wait for an acceptable organ. The organ transplants have included hearts, kidneys, lungs, double lungs and a liver.
